'I'm the Captain Now' | Captain Phillips | CineStream

Four pirates board the ship and take control.

Captain Phillips is a multi-layered examination of the 2009 hijacking of the U.S. container ship Maersk Alabama by a crew of Somali pirates. Based on a true story, the film focuses on the Alabama’s commanding officer, Captain Richard Phillips (two-time Academy Award®-winner Tom Hanks, Best Actor, 1993, Philadelphia; Best Actor, 1994, Forrest Gump), and the Somali pirate captain, Muse (Barkhad Abdi), who takes him hostage. The two men are set on an unstoppable collision course when Muse and his crew target Phillips’ unarmed ship; in the ensuing standoff, both men will find themselves at the mercy of forces beyond their control.

“I’m the captain now” was ad libbed. Excellent work.

[ivangodin]

This film really gets to me because it did and can happen.
A fictional thriller isn't as brutal as one that can actually take place in every day life.
Love Tom Hanks because he never plays the superhero. He plays the ordinary guy caught up in extraordinary circumstances.

Barkhad Abdi did an excellent job playing the pirate in this film.

"Do I look like a beggar?"

"oh boy this is awkward..."

[hobbs]

'Nobody gets hurt if you don't play no games' that's my favourite line in the whole movie because they did try to trick the pirates and people got hurt

[notallowed]

The, "look at me, I am the captain" line was improvised on the spot and kept in

[Sercil]

"Do I look like a beggar?"
Without the rifle, yeah, pretty much

[nightstardust]

“Good luck” sends a chill down my spine everytime. He’s basically saying we ARE together and a team, but honestly….we are all on our own since we have no idea what they’ll do…but god speed to you all…so much power behind two words!

[johnstjohn]

"You Yankee?"
"Red Sox actually. "

[MadlyParrot]

“no al-qaeda here, just business”
God I love this line!

[JosephDutra]

This honestly one of Tom Hanks' best performances, he should have been nominated for an Oscar for this one!

Look at me, I'm captain now.... Thank you for the gift of memes

my favourite thing about this film are the other actors (the crew) that are so natural, so real. I feel like a seasoned actor couldn't pull off this realism, it gets me everytime I watch this :) Awesome.

3:13 as a beggar myself I can confirm he does.

I see a lot of comments about these pirates, the ship's crew and the situation in itself. I live in the middle of the Indian Ocean and Somalia is about 2, 500 miles from our shores. At the peak of piracy in the Indian Ocean our livelihood was seriously affected and we had on a few occasions our countryman, mostly fishermens, taken hostages by these same pirates. They were taken to Somalia and held there. Our government had to pay quite a bit of ransom to have them freed. These guys were serious.

"lock down the bridge"

*does absolutely nothing to lock down the bridge*

[mava]

these (robbery, assaults) happened a lot before carrier companies realized they needed security guards on board, there was indeed negligence and disrespect for the Lifes of these workers.

[lorderik]

Fun fact: This scene was the first time the casts from both the Alabama and Somali pirate crews met each other in-person.

Funny how the improvised stuff is usually what makes movies memorable
